The hunger from within, so strong
Thinking of only one thing
The tastes of fresh blood flowing down the throat
Watching as people walk by, from the shadows
The scent of life so overwhelming
They are blind to those of us that would feed
Never even giving a thought
To that which hides in the night waiting
Watching for just the right one
Waiting to fill this hunger from inside
Emotions being twisted, survival will win
So the hunger will be fed, put to rest
Still, watching, waiting for that one
Wanting the wait to be over
Wanting the hunger to end
Wanting the pounding to stop
The hunger within always there
Appeased for a moment, just a moment
Then to return as if it never left
Stronger, like an addiction,
An addiction to live and feed
To taste sweet, fresh, warm blood
Oh the joy and the sorrow
The hunger within, my own hunger…

She comes and sits with you
Her wings surround you
Keeping you safe taking your pain
As she is taking your life
Her wings comfort in a way no other can
She let’s you weep, watching around you
They don’t see her, as she comforts
She has come to ease your pain
She has watched you suffer, what pain
She feels it as she takes it from you
As she takes your life, it is with love
That she does so,
Some she hates to take, too young
Mortals will never know of her pain
Pain she has to bear alone,
Man brings it on himself yet the blame falls to her
She is the taker of souls it is her place
She will comfort you love you
She will do what no other can
Take and mend the broken spirit
Will you take her hand?
Will when it is your time
Let her heal your soul make you whole
So you can be re-born to a knew life
For she now carries your pain and suffering
She now offers you love and safety
While you let go she is holding you
Keeping you safe, crying tears of sorrow
For it is Death’s love that binds her
Forever to take the souls
Forever to replace the pain
Forever to lead you home

Stepping into the edge of darkness
A nothingness, just black empty space
That is all that’s ahead of you
No sound, no feeling, just silence
Stillness in its rare form, total calm
Peace that can never be found in life
Coldness that takes your breath
Yet you do not feel cold only peace
Darkness in front of you, beckoning
Calling your name to step into the abyss
Solitude with a new meaning
What lays in the darkness no one knows
It still calls to the soul, a constant call
Shall one step into it, find out
There is no fear felt just a sweet release
No demands, no expectations, freedom
So standing on the edge of darkness
One can decide, to turn back, or step in
This time maybe it is just a test of will
Next time there may be no turning back

As I sit here thinking
My mind it wanders
To times gone by
Where we could be
Fires we danced by
Cold castle floors
The hunt, our hunt
For fresh sweet blood
Night air, cold and crisp
Snow gently caressing our face
Sounds of night, nocturnal beings
Oh how those memories haunt me
Now I dream again
Of dancing around the fire
No care to what others think
Just being free, living, loving

He sleeps, alone in his cave
Just waiting for the call, the call to duty
For he is the Dragon, protector, and guard
Keeping safe the kingdom
Watching over the nobles, their children, and all
He has been loyal and faithful, true to his calling
He has fought battles on end, always strong
For he has in his blood the true faith of a guardian
With dignity, he flies, with love in his heart, he fights
He is the Dragon, the mightiest of fighters
In his soul rages desire, in his heart, love
He will always be there, never to leave
Listen quietly, do you hear him
His wings softly cutting through the night’s air
Circling the kingdom, standing guard
Watching with deep eyes, listening, searching
As you sleep at night, remember he takes flight
Watching as you slumber, to keep you safe
He will protect you, without worry of death
For it is his duty, and it is his fate
So when you close your eyes at night
Remember you are watched over
Give thanks to your Dragon evermore
For it is out of love, that he does this
It is his duty… for you are
The Dragon’s Keep
